The Voorhees houses we work on.
The typical home across the township was built in 1983, and of the 12,772 housing units here the median sits squarely in the late 1970s and 1980s.
At this scale the arithmetic changes: a fifty-year roof replaces two more twenty-five-year ones. One metal roof instead of the two more asphalt roofs the house would otherwise need over the same period.
Metal suits the pitched single-family homes here; the flat sections on the multi-family stock are a different system entirely.
Owner-occupancy runs around 62% in Voorhees, so a good share of the work here is for landlords and small property owners. Those jobs get the same written number and the same crews; they just tend to move faster. Voorhees covers about 12 square miles and is home to roughly 31,191 people.
What Voorhees weather does to a house
This is Camden County: a dense inner ring across the river from Philadelphia, thinning into farmland to the east. Inland New Jersey does not have one dramatic weather problem; it has the freeze-thaw cycle, and it runs all winter. The mechanism is slow and cumulative: water enters a small defect, expands as it freezes, and leaves the defect slightly larger than it found it. Metal is largely indifferent to it, which is a good part of why it outlasts asphalt by decades.

“Honest about everything. They showed up on time, kept the property clean, and the roof came out amazing. Made everything stress free.”
Straight answers.
Metal roofing in Voorhees typically runs $18,000 to $35,000. What moves a given house within that band is size, pitch and what is already on the roof — and with a median build year of 1983 and 38% of the stock built before 1980, Voorhees sees more of that variation than a newer town would. We work that out at the inspection, not after the job starts.
Yes. New Jersey issues construction permits at the municipal level, so a metal roof in Voorhees is permitted through the local construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code. We pull it and meet the inspector; you file nothing.
The median Voorhees home dates to 1983.
Longer than an asphalt roof: two to four days for most houses, because every panel is measured, formed and seamed rather than nailed through the face. Voorhees is about 45 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
No deposit, in Voorhees or anywhere else we work. Nothing is due until the job is finished and you have walked it with us. Financing is available if you would rather spread the cost, and it does not change the quoted price.
